Ukrainians Want Zelensky to End the War

Countless men and women are dead. Cities have been destroyed. Other nations want to “help” by sending weapons, but Ukrainians are eager to end the war. A Gallup poll from July 1-14 found that only 24% of Ukrainians would fight until victory.

Back in 2022, 73% of people favored fighting until victory, but now the true cost has been revealed, and there is no victory in war. As of July 2025, 69% of Ukrainians support ending the war immediately through negotiations with Russia. In contrast, only 22% of the nation felt that peace talks were warranted in 2022.

Ukrainians notably shifted their view toward the US, their former top ally, once Donald Trump took office, with 73% expressing disapproval. This marks a record high and stands in stark comparison to 2022, when 66% approved of Biden’s unwavering support for the war.

The Kyiv Post reported that only 48% of Ukrainians support President Zelensky, although this figure is optimistic. Zelensky’s attempt to eliminate the agencies that protect the public from government corruption damaged his image.

“When analyzing the dynamics of trust in the context of the events surrounding Law No. 12414, it is important to note that we already observed a downward trend in early June. Therefore, not all of the seven-percentage point drop in trust can be attributed to the adoption of the law.

However, this event undoubtedly had an impact, as some respondents specifically cited the vote as the reason for their distrust of the President,” according to the survey’s commentary. The Gallup poll found that 35% of respondents do not trust Zelensky, a 5% increase from before his failed executive order.

The West speaks of protecting Ukraine by increasing military aid and multiplying its own military arsenals. But the people do not want war. The Brits, the Germans, the Ukrainians–every single indicator shows that the people do NOT want to play the neocons’ war games. A survey is the only feigned consideration that the people have, as they are not permitted to vote on war. The Ukrainians were not even able to vote on their leadership, as Zelensky has installed himself as the permanent president until “victory” is achieved. Assuming permanent leadership under the premise of war will become a familiar concept in the coming years. The Ukrainian people have been living in fear for three years, and soon, all of Europe will feel the same repercussions of wartime hardships.

Facts appear to indicate the penis piano playing comedian is a few steps away from receiving the Mussolini treatment. At this point, best to let the realities on the front play out, the corrupted little man in green had many chances to end the war.

No bias here folks, no sirree, we can rely on every fabricated number and conclusion that can be conjured up by the isolationist's mind.

Many Northerners (at times maybe even a majority?) wanted Lincoln to end the Civil War by letting the South secede.

Maybe

But theres no way there would have been peaceful coexistence between the USA and CSA. You cant have a slave nation and nonslave nation like these two, being peaceful with each other.

It won’t end until the Ukrainian People ‘Ceausescu-ize’ him.

I don't think the CSA would have continued slavery. Some historians believe it would have ended even had the South seceded, probably within another generation or two.

Interesting to speculate what would have happened on the world stage. Perhaps no U.S. entry into World War One, which would have ended in a stalemate. No Hitler, WW2, spread of Communism, or Vietnam...

Poor analogy.

Ceausescu was Romanians' main oppressor during his reign.

Ukraine's main oppressor is Russia, now and in the 1930s.

Maybe it’s fun to speculate but it is pointless.

I suggest we let Z take a gun to the meeting and end the war with Putin that way. How’s that for a what if?

Desertion Rate is now between 300-500 every single day. To fight the deserations, Zelinski freezes all family and extended family member funds.

The shit-show is at its end.

Trump has no cards.

Russia deployed hypersonic missiles in Syria overnight. Today is the timeframe in which Russia tests it nuclear powered nuclear-capable missile that can fly for years....
Trump overplayed his hand on Iran.

Harken back to Bush II leaving a missile treaty; and then Trump (from a position of strength) leaving the INF treaty, we are now reaping the fruits of American Predatory Foreign Policy which suverts the military to the State Department (READ CIA) control and the never-ending wars.

Almost a hunderd Bandaras NAZIs celebrated their NAZI Black and Red Flag in Poland over the weekend and were deported back to Ukraine - the NAZI narrative grows even in the west, where memories of Bandaras murdering Polish in WWII was remembered nation-wide when they broke the deportation news.

the Mussolini treatment

I'd settle for Ceausescu, either would be an improvement.

It appears that the war has pretty much been won by Russia at this point. Putin and Trump will work out a deal and Trump will serve it up to the EU weak sisters and Zelensky who is a short timer. He will be gone after the peace deal.

Slavery was already on the way out in 1865. Technology was on the brink of making it unnecessary and too expensive. Within 20 years it would have died out on its own.

I sincerely hope this is true! Not necessarily the Mussolini treatment, but his total and permanent ouster from power. But if the Mussolini treatment is what it takes, so be it.

I see it differently. There simply can’t be a Peace deal with Zelensky still the illegitimate “ President “.

The logical next step is to hold elections, then proceed forward with Peace talks….and elections should begin by electing a fresh Rada, and President. The Ukrainian Rada is just as corrupted as Zelensky is.
